Columnist Robert Novak reports that John Kerry may send his puppy on a photo-op junket to Iraq.
Tentative plans are being discussed inside the Kerry-Edwards campaign to send vice-presidential candidate John Edwards to Iraq as soon as possible. Edwards has not gone to Iraq since the U.S. invasion last year. His visit there would be designed to try to fill the senator's lack of experience in national security policy. It also would provide the campaign with photo opportunities showing Edwards in close contact with U.S. troops in Iraq.
Tip via James Joyner at Outside the Beltway, who correctly observes that this is "laughable." Not the last such decision we will see.
